One of the best things about dining out, aside from the bread basket, is watching and/or eavesdropping on your fellow patrons. Wondering if a couple is on their first awkward date or listening to the table next to you order the most complicated item on the menu can be as delicious as the meal you’re about to dig in to. So one can only imagine how in the world the diners at New York City’s Philippe over the weekend pretended to care about what was on their plate as Woody Allen and Lindsay Lohan sat at a nearby table…together. Lohan’s rep confirmed to Hollywood.com that “They had dinner together [Saturday] in New York. Lindsay very much admires Mr. Allen.”
If safety codes didn’t prohibit them, we would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for that conversation. What did they talk about? (My guess is either the challenge of writing about urban neurosis over the span of four decades or Herbie Fully Loaded.) Are they planning on working together? Is she his new muse? (Look out, Scarlett and Penelope.) Who ordered what? And, of course, the biggest looming question of all: WUH?!
Take a look at the odd couple leaving the restaurant over the weekend here:
